Ihe Kepupllcan planS was everywhere
accepted as bsing in line with the votes
Of that party in Congress and, therefore,
meaning protection withou. any "ifs" or
"buts." The Democratic plank was var
iously Interpreted according to locality.
In Pennsylvania Mr.. Randall said 1t
meant protection; in Kentucky Mr.. Wat
terson and Mr.. Caslisle said it meant
revenue REFORM" another term for free
trade.
Before tho adoption Of the plank Of 1884
the Democratic party had been making q
navlge onslaught on tho protective tariff ;
after tho adoption Of that plank the Dem.
ocratic party Kept ct ita old tricks. Mr..
Randall! led e revolt against tho tariff pol
icy OF bis party in Coug,esa, and for this
the majority Of bis party has since do
nounced his aa no longer Democrat.
Young men who have not the record
convenient may BIO Interested to have put
before them briefly the recent tariff utter
sncaB Of tho Democratic party. In lS72it
declined 10 make declaration OF princi.
PIC on this question, preiering to remit
the discussion OF the subject to the people
In their Congregational districts, and to tho
decision Of tho Congress-" It was a
national quae.ian, but tho Democratic
party had not the courage to cay in a
national convention where it stood on that
question. In 1876 tho Democratic party
demanded "that all Custom House taxa
ton shallb only for revenue" Four years
later it changed tho wording OF its tariff
plank and declared in lsvor Of "a tariff
for revenue only"
The Democratic doctrine, however, 1t
may DO stated, is that the aim OF tho gov.
ernment should BIO to raise money to keep
itself running, leaving the industries Of
the country to take care OF themselves.
II the industries cannot live against for.
ejsn competition, 60 much the worse Tor

The b. g. O. Telegraph Lines.

NEW YORK, July 23.-It is stated that the
Brotherhood of Telegraphers OF the United
States has made proposition purchase the
Baltimore & Ohio Telegraph Company The
sum they offer is So. 600 000 This is said to be-
the exact amount offered by Mr.. Could The
Brotherhood offer to pay $500,000 cash on the
acceptance of their proposition, and 70
pay the remaining So. 500, 900 at the end of
six months. This large amount it is proposed
to raise by assessing each membe OF the Broth
erhood fifty dollars per month for six months
There 1900 members, and the leaders
among them entertain doubt of their ability
to raise the sum required. The proposition is
one that is looked upon with favor by the mem
bers, and they express confidence that every
man among them would devote himself with
zeal to the task of raising the So, 000.0 900 and
meet his assessment prompt The assessment
paid by each member of the brotherhood would
make him a stakeholder in the company and
sharer in the profits.
The negotiations for the purchase of the Balti-
more d Ohio have been conducted with the
greatest secrecy Rumor has it that the Knights
of Labor are leading a helping hand in the
transaction cooperative telegraph COM

strength of the position continues be neutraized
by the stubborn backwardness of the country demand

sorbed from the seaboard. With this exception,
however, the surrounding influences are all of

too much above our parity to admit of purchases,
while the statistical position of supplies imparts fresh
confidence holders in maintaining their position.
Europe has given evidence of entertaining strong
views visible supply for this country and Europe
is and the speculative dealing in options has
afforded strong support to the buoyant temper of the
market Under these circumstances the stubborn
in which the distributive trade ressts the ad
by keeping out of the market is disappointing
as well discouraging and affords Jobbers little OPP
portunity to replenish their supplies The advance
in prices has given local dealers chance to realize
profits by turning over their stocks and in this way
there has been considerable swapping of spot and

entering into operations that would increase their
supplies of actual stock except in the way making
a trade by which they could turn profit"
